CrosVM Continuous Integration Builders

This directory contains the toolchain to build docker containers for building and testing crosvm. They are used by Kokoro during presubmit and on continuous integration runs, but can also be used locally to run tests in a predictable environment.

Overview

  • ci/build_environment: Contains tooling for building the dependencies of crosvm.
  • ci/crosvm_base: Docker image shared by crosvm_builder and crosvm_aarch64_builder
  • ci/crosvm_builder: A native docker image for building and testing crosvm
  • ci/crosvm_aarch64_builder: An x86 docker image to cross-compile for aarch64 and test with user-space emulation.
  • ci/builder: Script to start the crosvm_builder container
  • ci/aarch64_builder: Script to start the crosvm_aarch64_builder container

Running the builder locally

You need to check out crosvm via repo, to pull all the required chromiumos dependencies:

$ repo init -u https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/manifest.git --repo-url https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/repo.git -g crosvm
$ repo sync -j4
$ cd src/platform/crosvm

A standard chromiumos checkout following the ChromiumOS Developer Guide will work too.

To run the smoke tests suite for both x86 and aarch64 on an x86 machine, just run:

$ cd platform/src/crosvm
$ ./ci/builder bin/smoke_test
$ ./ci/aarch64_builder bin/smoke_test

or start an interactive shell for either of them:

$ ./ci/builder
$ ./ci/aarch64_builder

Note: Tests on aarch64 are a work in progress and may not pass.

When the builder is started, it will prepare the environment for building and running tests, this includes building dependencies for crosvm that are provided by the ChromiumOS checkout.

The environment in both is setup so that cargo test or existing scripts like bin/smoke_tests compile for the right target and execute tests correctly (using qemu-user for aarch64).

The builders allow for incremental builds by storing build artifacts in $CARGO_TARGET/ci/crosvm_builder.

Using podman

Podman is a daemon-less docker replacement that runs containers without root privileges. If podman is installed, it will be automatically used.

For Googlers, see go/dont-install-docker for more details.

Note: Since podman runs with your users permissions, you need to setup access to devices required by tests. Most notably /dev/kvm and /dev/net/tun.

Building and uploading a new version of builders

The docker images for all builders can be built with make and uploaded with make upload. Of course you need to have docker push permissions for registry.gitlab.com/crosvm-ci/crosvm-ci for the upload to work.
